const [formErrors, setFormErrors] = useState()

const onSubmitForm = (data) => {
    if (data.password !== data.confirmpassword) {
      setFormErrors([{ field: 'confirmpassword', type: 'doesNotMatch' }])
    } else {
      !isLoading &&
        alert(
          `You have submitted your form correctly Data: ${'\n'} ${JSON.stringify(
            data,
            null,
            2
          )}`

Checkbox example

    {
          "name": "terms_and_conditions",
          "label": "This is the label of the checkbox with a [customLink](#customLink) and [normalLink](https://www.dcsl.com/careers/)",

          },
          "registerConfig": {
            "required": true
          }
        }

Country v2

| Option | Description | Type | Default | |--------------------|--------------------------------------|:------:|:-------:| | name* | Country component name | string | | | type* | Must be country_v2 | string | | | label | Text shown over the country question | string | '' | | placeholder | Placeholder displayed in the select | string | '' | | config | See table below | json | {} | | errorMessages | Validation errors | json | {} | | registerConfig | Validation rules | json | {} |

config options

| Option | Description | Type | Default | |-----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|:--------:|:-------:| | whitelist | List of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes of the countries allowed in the list.This is mutually exclusive with blacklist and whitelisttakes precedence. | string[] | [] | | blacklist | List of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes of the countries not allowed in the list.This is mutually exclusive with whitelist and whitelisttakes precedence. | string[] | [] | | priorityOptions | List of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes of the countries to be displayed first in the list.Ex: ['GB', 'ES'] | string[] | [] | | search | Allows the user to search typing in the select control | boolean | false | | flag | Shows the flag of the country before the name | boolean | false |

The countries will be displayed in the language according to the language attribute of the FormBuilder. It should use the ISO 639-1 code of the language to display countries names. Available laguages: en, es, de, fr.

This library depends on the i18n-iso-countries library to translate the country names and flags. If you want to translate the countries to a different language, you can use the registerLocale method of the i18n-iso-countries library to register a new locale. For example, to translate the countries to Afrikaans, install the library and do the following:

import countriesTools from 'i18n-iso-countries'
import afLocale from 'i18n-iso-countries/langs/af.json'
countriesTools.registerLocale(afLocale)

Country v2 example:

{
  "name": "country_of_residence",
  "placeholder": "Select your country of residence",
  "type": "country_v2",
  "label": "Country of residence",
  "errorMessages": {
    "required": "This field is required"
  },
  "registerConfig": {
    "required": true
  },
  "config": {

  }
}

[!IMPORTANT] Take into account that the ISO 3166-2 codes of some countries include relevant administrative divisions and dependent territories. For example, for US the outlying areas are also officially assigned their own country codes. So you would need to manualy blacklist them if you want to exclude them from the list.

County subdivision example:

{
  "name": "country_subdivision",
  "placeholder": "Choose a region",
  "type": "country_subdivision",
  "label": "Select your region",

Phone

Reminder: The isoCode prop that can also be sent in the ReactFormBuilder component will define the default country displayed in the phone field.

Important: due to a known issue in older versions of NextJS, it's necessary to add the following import in any files where the form builder contains a Phone question:

import 'react-phone-number-input/style.css'

Basic phone

{
  "name": "phone",
  "type": "phone",
  "label": "",
  "registerConfig": {
    "required": true
  },
  "defaultCountry":"GB",
  "placeholder": "Phone",

Autocomplete

It works the same as select field, but searchable option is available.

Autocomplete examples

Autocomplete basic example

{
  "name": "color",
  "type": "autocomplete",
  "placeholder": "Please choose an option",
  "label": "What is your favorite color?",
  "errorMessages": {
    "required": "This field is required"
  },
  "registerConfig": {
    "required": true
  },
  "config": {
    "options": [
      {
        "value": "red",
        "label": "Red"
      },
      {
        "value": "black",
        "label": "Black"
      },
      {
        "value": "prefer_not_say",
        "label": "prefer not to say"
      }
    ]
  }
}

ReCAPTCHA

This feature is implemented using react-google-recaptcha. By default it shows at the bottom-right of your app and will only show the ReCAPTCHA modal when bot-like behavior is detected filling the form.

ReCAPTCHA example

    {
      "name": "my-recaptcha",
      "type": "recaptcha",
      "recaptchaKey": "your-recaptcha-key"
    }

Accessibility

The accessibility requirements for all the form tags are already configured in the library. For components (input, checkbox, select, radio…) different attributes have been introduced that can be configured through props.

Next, we can see different attributes and tags to adjust the accessibility of the form and how to configure them:

To define the style for the fields, as we use theme-ui, we can either do inline-styling using style=”” or instead sx=”” where you pass the style accordingly. Also, we can include an “id” attribute for input that needs a unique style.
For the markdown component, we can add the corresponding tag to the text or title. To illustrate that, if the title is an h2, it will include “##” before text, or, if the title is an h3, it will include “###”, and so on.

Following are the few code examples to see how we use each component:

Main form

{
  "en": {
    "contact": {
      "name": "Contact Form",
      "enabled": true,
      "accessibilityError": true,
      "questions": [...]
    }
  }
}

Input tag

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="first_name">First name*</label>
    <input
        type="text"
        class="form-control"
        placeholder=""
        id="first_name"
        name="first_name"
        aria-describedby="error_message_first_name"
        required>
    <span class="invalid-feedback"
          style="display:block;"
          id="error_message_first_name">This field is required</span>
</div>

Dropdown fields

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="age">Age Range</label>
    <select class="form-control"
            autocomplete="off"
            id="age"
            name="age"
            aria-describedby="error_message_age"
            required
    >
        <option value="" disabled>Please make a selection</option>
        <option value="one">One</option>
        <option value="two">Two</option>
        <option value="three">Three</option>
    </select>
    <span class="invalid-feedback"
          style="display:block;"
          id="error_message_age">Please make a selection</span>

Multiple checkbox
